Six
years prior to the formation of the present Association, an attempt was made in
August 1880 to form a Scottish Junior FA. Of the 48 clubs which sent in for
membership, 30 were admitted, 6 refused, 4 withdrew their application, 5
didn't send in the required particulars and 3 were expelled. Based primarily in the Glasgow and district area. The
SJFA, like its successor also ran a Scottish Junior Cup competition before
apparently disbanding at the end of the season.
